Can oil progesterone injections be used for body enhancement (bigger bum, fill hip dips etc)? Anyone experienced in this area?

Question

I hear there are oil progesterone injection being injected into buttocks to give it a fuller look and to fill out hip dips. I wanted to find out if this is a safe procedure and the science behind it.

First what you need to know is that hormone injections into any area of the body, including the buttock, do not stay localized, they get absorbed into the bloodstream and travel throughout the entire body and therefore have effects throughout the entire body and brain. Second, the amount of buttock  augmentation you will get from this is rather minuscule and not worth the potential side effects you experience throughout the rest of the body and brain.  Long story short, this is a sham and has absolutely no science behind it other than what is noted above. Hope this helps.

Dear Pazsx,
in case you want butt augmentation, there are two main options: implants and fat transfer. I would suggest you to avoid non-FDA approved options. If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

Steroid manipulation for body contouring is medically inappropriate and potentially dangerous.

If you have concerns of hormone in balance and talk to your primary care doctor or an endocrinologist.

If you want to learn about body contouring options then I suggest consulting with local board-certified plastic surgeons.

Best,
